Baytown Eagle in Flight

It's not the shot I'd hoped for, but I was glad to finally get a shot of one of the Baytown Eagles in flight. It was late in the evening for my slow rig so I was excited to get something usable under the circumstances.

And the Winner Is...

I took this shot Saturday morning of the eventual winner of the inaugural running of the Baytown "Jailbreak Half Marathon". This shot is at the foot of the Fred Hartman Bridge on the Baytown side as the runners turned into Bayland Marina at a water stop. I set up in this location to be sure I had the bridge in the background.

Monster Crane

I've been checking out this crane for about a week now. It's located at a plant, I think Lyondell, off of Lawndale near the Richey exit I'm not sure my shot does justice to the extreme size of this thing, but it is a genuine monster.

Hugo Point Foot Bridge

I had several comments about the base image used in my surreal shot "Defiance" yesterday so I though I would post it here. This shot was taken right after a brief shower while the sky was still dramatic.

General George S. Patton?


Not so much! But this gentlemen was a good enough likeness to be entertaining at the "Homes for the Troops Sporting Clays Tournament" this past weekend.

One of my favorite Patton quotes is "A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week." I hope our newly elected Congress thinks of this quote as they work towards cutting the budget and repealing Obamacare.
